    The Snail and the Butterfly

    Written by Dougie Coop

    Illustrated by CJ the Kid

    Ages 4+ | 42 Pages

    Publisher: Rare Bird Books | ISBN-13: 9781644283653

    Publisher’s Book Summary: Have you ever wanted to do something great? Something no one else believed you could do? Well, here is your chance to learn how. Meet a little snail who wanted to fly and an old butterfly who questioned why. Travel with the little snail as he crawls up a mushroom determined to soar from the top. But every time, the same thing makes him stop: fear. Sound familiar?

    Filled with inspiration and motivation, this magical conversation between an ambitious snail and a seasoned butterfly encourages us to pursue our dreams regardless of who we are or where we come from. 

    With words by award-winning author Doug Cooper aka Dougie Coop, and illustrations by acclaimed Australian artist CJ the Kid, the rhythmic verse and playful style remind us all we can achieve the impossible as long as we believe, trust, and persevere.

      My 3 and a half year old granddaughter loves butterflies. She loves to sit in a butterfly chair at a park plus wearing a monarch butterfly costume and spreading her wings is a fun play. She likes pretending to be a butterfly would like the whimsical illustrations in this story.
